Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 6

Context: There's a strange building that runs a strange program - said program is, largely, an effort to rehome and rehabilitate yanderes. Any who undertake the challenge are given monetary rewards, and that certainly makes it appealing. But you signed up for a different reason and, after rigorous training, the day came that you adopted your own yandere. The most extreme case at the center was your choice ala a seemingly nervous, wounded man named Desmond or "Dez". You've brought him home and it's time to see how he adjusts. He's been intense, as you expected, but has improved enough that you've agreed to date him. It's been surprisingly good for a long while now, and you feel comfortable in the relationship. Dez does as well, it seems.

Setting: The mall

[Scene opens at the mall during Christmas]

[SFX: Mall ambiance and Christmas music, if available]

[You meander through the mall with Dez. He keeps a tight grip on your hand, hovering as close as possible]

“P-Phew, breathe, breathe… No one will take them from you, they won’t leave you here, i-it’s OK…”

[Pause]

[He gives a shaky smile]

“T-Thank you. F-For letting me take breaks and keeping hold of my hand, e-even though it’s all sweaty… I d-didn’t expect it to be so warm in the mall, even this close to Christmas.”

[Pause]

“Eheh, y-yeah… I’ve n-never had a Christmas before. I’m s-so excited! All the p-presents looked so nice u-under the tree. I-I’m just sad t-that we h-had to come out here on Christmas E-Eve to pick up t-the new console I ordered.”

[Pause]

[The two of you get in line together, Dez resting his chin on your crown and holding you from behind]

“Mmh… your shampoo smells really nice. It’s… Mmh… other people are looking at you… l-like I look at you…”

[To your surprise, his normally soft voice turns incredibly dark and steady]

“I have to stop them. I have to. You’re mine, you’re mine, you have to stay mine, no matter what happens…”

[Pause]

[He blinks, seeming surprised he’s conscious]

“H-Huh? W-What did you ask?”

[Pause]

“O-Oh! Y-Yeah, the controllers in black with the gold t-trim are the ones I wanted. W-We can get two, right? T-That way you can play with me!”

[You gently donk his head with yours and he smiles, going back to embracing you from behind]

“H-Hey, um… C-Can I tell you something?”

[Pause?]

“M-My brother… k-kind of wanted t-to come over f-f-for Christmas, r-remember? A-And I said I’d think about it? Um…”

[Pause]

“Y-You prepared enough food for t-three already? Baby… you’re so good to me. I-I’d really like to pick him up a gift, i-is that OK?”

[Pause]

“Oh yeah… I-I have my own bank account, haha. Uh, let’s see… Ah, damnit, I forgot my card. C-Can you hold my place in line, sweetie? I’m just going to run to the ATM, O-OK?”

[Pause]

“T-Thanks, hon!”

[He hurries off and you gradually move through the line. He still isn’t back by the time you get to the counter, so you get his order and head back out, looking for him]

[Pause?]

[SFX: Texting noises followed by hurried footsteps approaching the Listener]

“B-Baby! T-There you are! I’m s-sorry I didn’t get back i-in time, I got caught up with…”

[Pause]

“H-Huh? W-What do you mean?”

[Pause]

“Uh… Y-Yeah, I totally went to the ATM, just like I said.”

[...]

“Y-Yeah! Cause I forgot my card!”

[...]

“T-Then how did I get cash out of…the… ATM…?”

[You watch while the gears turn in his head and he looks down at the floor, shaking]

“I-I… I’m sorry that I lied… I-I just… I-I-I-I wanted… Nngh, h-here, let me just show you.”

[With a bit of a pained wheeze, he clumsily produces a small, velveteen box]

“S-See this little box? I-It… I w-was going to… Y-You just mean so much to me, a-and every day, w-when I wake up and watch you sleep a-and kiss your shoulders a-and see how you look up at me a-and smile… I-I want to keep you. F-Forever. A-And I wasn’t s-sure how exactly you do this, s-since I’ve only seen it in movies, b-but I was gonna get on one knee, like this…”

[He kneels]

“A-And open the ring box, like this.”

[He opens it. A beautiful, if a little nerdy, ring gleams at you from inside]

“A-And then I’d say “Will you marry me?” a-and… and hopefully you’d… y-you know… B-But I was going to w-w-wait until I was sure you… y-you know…”

[SFX: A crowd watching with bated breath]

[Everyone in the mall, for the most part, has stopped and is watching this. Dez doesn’t seem to notice]

“I… I know I-I’m probably n-never really going to be worthy b-but I love you so much, and I just n-need you to know that, if you keep loving me, I-I am in this f-for the long haul.”

[Pause]

“H-Huh…? W-What did you say?”

[You say “Yes”]

[SFX: The crowd cheering and bursting into applause]

“Y-You… R-Really?! Y-You’ll marry me???”

[Again, you say “Yes”, though it comes out as more of a “Ye-” before he’s kissing you]

[SFX: Smooches (If one can stomach it)]

“Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! I-I’ll be so good, I’ll b-be the perfect husband!”

[Pause]

“...I-I already am? Oh god, here come the tears. Oh, it’s typhoon season on Dez Island here, sniff…”

[Pause?]

“N-No, I… I w-wanna do something else b-before we go back to the car, O-OK? F-Follow me.”

[He takes your hand and gently leads you back into the mall until you reach a rather high-end jewelry store]

“W-Would you… p-please pick out a ring for me? I-It doesn’t have to be fancy o-or expensive, I-I just want it to come from you…”

[You look around for a few minutes until you spot The One - a silver band that looks like a curled dragon]

“O-Oh… I-I… I love it… Damnit, not the waterworks again, pheww, c’mon, c’mon Dez, c’mon…U-Uh? Oh, sizing! R-Right…”

[He shuffles over and lets the attendant size his ring finger]

“T-Thank you… Y-Yes, we c-can wait for a second!”

[The attendant toddles off and Dez hurriedly clings to your side]

“...I know it’s my f-first one, b-but… I t-think this is the best Christmas ever.”
